Description

This distillery was in the west of Kingussie and was rail served by a short branch which departed the south end of the station to cross the A86 to reach the distillery. The distillery opened in 1896 and closed in 1906.

Only a range of cottages still stand, the rest of the site was cleared in 1925.

A modern distillery of the same name opened in 1962 at a different site to the east of the town.
